Re: Need help typing Spanish characters

   Do you know about the  character viewer OS X? Enable it in System 
prefs, keyboard. Then you can find all the various special characters 
one might ever need, even hidden ones.

Option+E, followed by the letter.  So for example:

Option+E then A=á

Option+E then E=é

Option+E then I=í

Option+E then O=ó

Now, here's where things get interesting.

Option+E then U=ú

But how do I get the U-grov?

It is unicode value 249 if that helps.

So, on windows, you could turn on your numlock, hold down the alt key,
and then on the num pad, while holding down alt, type 0249.

That would give you the U-grov.

This is used for words like say...  lingùe

Any help?  I just don't know what keys with the option key to hit.  I
really don't wanna invoke the spanish keyboard layout.

I'm totally aware of that.  As I said in my initial message, that is not the 
method I wanted to take.  Alas, I figured it out.

Need help typing Spanish characters

2016-09-07 Thread Christopher-Mark Gilland
OK, I'm totally stumped!

I am trying to type a spanish document, but no matter what I do, I cannot for 
the life of me figure out how to type the U-Grov.  I know how to do a U acute.  
Obviously, all 5 of your vowels can be done with Option+E, followed by the 
letter.  So for example:

Option+E then A=á

Option+E then E=é

Option+E then I=í

Option+E then O=ó

Now, here's where things get interesting.

Option+E then U=ú

But how do I get the U-grov?

It is unicode value 249 if that helps.

So, on windows, you could turn on your numlock, hold down the alt key, and then 
on the num pad, while holding down alt, type 0249.

That would give you the U-grov.

This is used for words like say...  lingùe

Any help?  I just don't know what keys with the option key to hit.  I really 
don't wanna invoke the spanish keyboard layout.
